Earlier today, Sirius Satellite Radio announced the launch of the new version of its popular Dock & Play radio, the Sportster 5. The new device features a color display that subscribers can easily adjust to match car dash lights or mood, with user-selectable screen and backlight colors.

The Sportster 5 is equipped with a large, multicolor, easy-to-read 6-line display plus a rotary tuning knob. Its selectable color feature allows the display screen to be adjusted to match the car dash lights, stereo display or the user’s mood. Sportster 5 measures 4.5″ x 2.5″ x .6″ and at just 3.7 ounces, it is the lightest Sportster yet.

The Sportster 5, conveniently transportable between home and car, is easy to use and comes with a smaller universal dock for attractive installation.

The Sportster 5 is scheduled to be available in fall 2007 with a suggested retail price of $169.99
